Solfege, Sight singing for string players and other instrumentalists

An introductory class for musicians of all ages, who have studied an instrument for at least one year. The goal is to pick up a piece of printed music and, using either Solfege syllables (the do-re-mi) or musical note letters or numbers, be able to sing, at first sight, the notes on the musical staff. This is a critical ability for string players, particularly when they start moving into the upper positions on the fingerboard. The focus is to develop the student's internal hearing. Beginning with the major scale, students move to musical dictation--simple rhythms at first, then later simple melodies. Some fun songs will be included in order to apply the ideas being studied.

Lively Arts--Music

School Grades 1-6
Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Modern and more.  Students will create their own dance production from start to finish.  It is a great way for beginning dancers to experience several forms of dance and show off their new found skills for family and friends.  This camp can be taken separately or as a part of the complete Lively Arts Camp which also includes Lively Arts Theatre Camp and Lively Arts Dance Camp.
